41. Murder in Retrospect (1942)

{also published as Five Little Pigs}

So I've been working on this little project of mine - reading all your published books in publication order - for three years now.  I'm roughly halfway there.  I think I've been reading at a decent pace, but boy I'd better step it up a bit if I don't want to say that it took me a decade to finish all of them.  (I know, my math is off, but that's called hyperbole.)

I'm starting 2019 off well enough on a good reading pace, although peak tax season hasn't really hit yet.  Still, I'm going to set a personal goal to get 24 Christies completed this year, finishing the project in 2020.  2 Agathas : 1 other book per month.  We shall see how it goes.

It took me a reeeeeeally long time to finish this book.  I just had the hardest time getting into it and distractions, as usual, abound.  I did enjoy it when I finished it, though, and wrapped up the next book, The Moving Finger, quite quickly after that.  And look how cool their covers look side-by-side!  They aren't next to each other on the bookcase (alphabetized, you know), so I'm glad I noticed it.


That's all I've got for this one, dear Agatha.  :)  Plugging along.

Always,
b.
